HONORARY DEGREES GRANTED The Forty-first Annual Commencement a t Indiana

Central was held on the morning of June 5 in the college gymnasium. President I. Lynd Esch presided and conferred degrees on thirty candidates from the senior class.

Dr, Harold R. Heininger, president of the Evan- gelical Theological Seminary at Naperville, Illinois, delivered the Commencement address.

Four honorary degrees were conferred on recog- nized church and civic leaders. The Doctor of Laws degree was conferred on Hobart Creighton of War- saw, speaker of the House of Representatives of the Indiana State Legislature and a member of the college Board of Trustees; and on Lawrence L. Huff- man of Dayton, Ohio, president of the college Board of Trustees and head of the Otterbein Press, pub- lishing house of the United Brethren Church.

Doctor of Divinity degiees were ccnferred on the Reverend E.. Craig Brandenburg of Bedford, super- intendent of the Indiana Conference of the United Brethren Church; and on the Reverend George Rlc- Ahren of Viola, Ivisconsin, superintendent 6f the Wisconsin Conference,.

Resuming activities on the gridiron, after fifteen years .of inactivity, the Greyhound eleven handed the Canterbury (Central Normal) squad a 6 to 0 defeat in the initial contest of the season. Coach Bright and his squad faced the opposition with a fighting spirit which made up for their lack of ex- perience. Two of the starting line-up backfield men and four of the linemen had never before played interscholastic football. Full of enthusiasm and fight characteristic of squads seen in former years, the boys came out on top.

The Canterbury squad was no easy dish, making several sustained drives deep into Central territory. Each time the Red and Grey held a t the crucial moment and turned the tide.

Early i n the second quarter the Greyhounds took the ball on the IVarriors' 46 following a blocked kick. Rushing accounted for several gains, then Uriggs passed to Crowe to advance to the 20. Here the IVarrior line stiffened to the running attack, but Friedenberger took to the air and RZcBride caught it on the .IO. h'icodemus then plowed through for 5 yards, and repeated to put the ball on the 1-foot line. From here V. Gillman scored. Cox came in to kick but failed.

EXPERIMENT NUMBER T W O The reactions to “Experiment Number One” were

numerous and -all of. them phrased -the same ,idea, -

namely, “IVe have just received the first copy of ‘Alumni News’ and enjoyed it thoroughly. Let’s have some more of it.”

The staff appreciates these. responses and it is very willing to continue to edit “Alumni News,” but it is impossible for them to edit news unless they have it. Sending in the news about the Alumni is your job, so come on, take a minute to write down some bit of information al)out someone that you know and mail it in. From then on, the staff will take over and in a short time you will receive another issue of “Alumni N e d ’ that will bring back all the fond memories df yesteryear.

MUNCIE ALUMNI CLUB On four occasions during the pear a very active

grbup of I. C. C. Alumni living in the vicinity of Anderson, Muncie, IIartfortl City and Marion meet for good fellowship and the reliving of campus days. The group has included about fifty of the seventy Alumni living in that vicinity.

Under the leadership of Lowell Barnett (’39), they - --have - accepted--the- challenge -of-ftirnishing-an-Atli- -

letic Scholarship for some aspiring man a t I. C. C. In the very near future they expect’ to have met this goal and mill be ready to start working on another project.

A t a recent meeting, Reverend L. L. Rupp (’27) recounted many of his experiences as a “sea-going cowboy” with a load of cattle sent to Greece by U. N. R. A. IVhile in Greece, Reverend R ~ p p had a little time to visit along the west coast of Greece and to visit Corinth.

INDIANA CENTRAL N I N E W I N S CONFERENCE T I T L E Mark it clown again i n hase-

I)all history, the Greyhound Club “brouglit home the bacon” by capturing the Indiana Con- ference title. Under the able coaching of mentor Ed. Bright they faced the season with a squad of only eighteen men out for the team. Coach Bright succeeded in putting together a winning combination for al l conference comers except Indi- ;ma State. The only two tle- feats of tlie Conference sched-

Front row: (left to right) M. Kistler, Klos, MrBride, Bunge. Wallen, ule were dished out by the Kaab, Harper, Back row: Coach Bright. Yost. D. Kistler, Warheit. Ruth, team from Terre Haute. Cox. Moaer. Bastin. Stoneburner, Nicodernus, Macaulay (Mgr).

In conference encounters tlie Cardinal antl Grey- defeated Jlanchester 8 to 0, Ball State in two games 8 to 1 antl G to 3, Eutler 4 t o 1, Taylor 18 to 1, Anderson 15 to 1, and Canterlmry (Central Normal) twice 8 to 7 and 7 to 4. The Camp Atterbury squad soundly thumped the Centralites early in the season. In an important non-conference game the Greyhounds triumphed over the University of Louisville.

Good performances on their pitching assignments were handled by Kistler, Ruth and Klos. Kistler racked up the feature record of the year by winning seven out of eight starts.

Something should be said of tlie spirit shown by this team. Sparked by their enthusiasm for the game they never quit trying. Always scrapping, they‘ex- hibited both fine individual and team spirit.‘ This in turn paid dividends in games won. Our heartiest congratulations to these fellows and Coach Bright. .

FOOTBALL CAMP CONDITIONS TEAM In preparation for resuming intercollegiate foot-

ball this fall Coach Bright planned and conducted a football camp to pre-condition his sqiiad. Report- i ng for the camp on August 2G, Coach Bright had forty boys ready to start preparations for the on- coming grid schedule.

Dealing with many inexperienced men, Eright em- phasized fundamentals i n his “Daily Double” work- outs. l’no practice periods were held each day as the boys were whipped into shape in a well-rounded conditioning program. All phases of tlie game were stressed as the boys literally ate and slept the basic training given them in rnnning, blocking, tackling, passing and kicking.

By the h i e school had opened the squad had grown to nearly sixty in number, half of whom were freshmen. At this time practice periods were re- duced to one per (lay. Though inexperienced, the ardor of these boys \vas not dampened by hard work and nearly fifty-five candidates are still vieing for permanent positions on the varsity squad.

A I ‘ % . I I 1 , CROSS,COUNTRY IS BACK, , I

Again it’is a familiar sight to see a group of fellows, clad in track attire, jogging about the campus. IVith the return of R. Hurst and J. Jlontoya, who hung up their spiked shoes in 1942 to join the fighting forces of Uncle Sam, the Harriers have resumed their workouts.

Bolstered by seteral good inen from high school track squads, and several protuising lads with high school cross country experience, Jlontoya and Hurst are striving to condition the group for several fall meets. Daily workouts are now in progress.

A definite final schedule has not as yet been ar- ranged but several of the Indiana Conference schools inclucling Manchester, Anderson, Earlham, Butler and IVabasli have expressed a desire to compete in fall meets.

Hurst and Jfontoya both have turned in some im- pressive performances in past years. IVith these boys forming the nucleus of the fall squad it is reasocable to expect a good season.

CENTRAL DEFEATS CANTERBURY J

(Continued from page 1) --.- On paper the Centralites were Iladly defeated,

scoring only six first clowns to Canterbury’s 21. Nost of tlie game was played on the Cardinal end of the field. Courtney and Volk, from the D a n d l e . squad, proved very evasive, antl both got away for substantial gains h i t never scored.

Late in the fourth quarter, tlie IVarriors drove deep into Central territory, with Courtney and Volk spearhead i 11 g t 11 e attack. Tli e Greyhound for ward wall stiffened antl held on the 6-yard line. T h e game ended before Can te rh ry could score.

“The boys played up to expectations,” said Coach Hriglit. “\\re made plenty of mistakes, but we’re hoping to be able to smooth out tlie rough spots for later gatnes. If the fellows continue the grand spirit shown in this first game we’re expecting a good season.”

OUR ATHLETIC PROJECT Those of us who were privileged to attend tlie

The college reports .that the churches are respond- i n g favorably to the plan, hut that individual alumni are slow in returning the cards. Remember, your church and conference get credit for your gift.

The Greyhound squad looks mighty fine in their new uniforms, and, judging from the ljrand of ball they played against Canterbury in tlie season’s opener, they are headed for a successful year.

Come on, alumni, let’s go! One endowment unit of $10 from each of 250 of 11s will put tis over the goal line. .Be sure to state on the card that your gift is t o be applied on the Alumni Football Equipment Project.

8 Utica, Montana May, 1936

Dear friends : This item may he too late for the alumni paper for

a while but thought I’d send my dues and help keep this good thing alive. I received the first copy and found it very interesting. I’ve wondered where all of the class of ’29 have located. . IVe own and operate a general merchandise store

here i n Utica, so yo11 see I have travelled far from Central since graduation. Utica is near the moun- tains in good hunting antl fishing country. I t is just a village, about ten houses, a hall, a two-room school, .a checking station for hunters, an old beer parlor, a small post office and church. IVe sell a little of everything and are located in the midst of big ranches.

\Ye have two. girls, age 10 antl 7, by name Nancy and Conny.

IVe have worked on a project here that I think will be of interest to many Centralites. \\’hen we arrived i n town four years ago there was no Sunday School and no church. Scrvices were held twice a month in the school house-that is, i f ’ there \\.as a minister in the parish. I finally decided to see what could he done about a Sunday School, because I wanted oiir own girls in one, so we had the first one in our l iv ing room. Nine came the first Sunday and thirteen the next. I t grew in numbers and we decided to use tlie school house. Since it has two rooms, it worked out very nicely. IVell, as time went on we finally had a happy thought of buying an old saloon for a church. I t was originally a schoolhouse and was moved in for a saloon, then it was sold to a man who used it for gambling only. \\re wrote our Superintendent about it and last August we bought it and now it is free of debt antl we have started repair xvorkl-on-it. -A \\70nian’s Society has been organized and they put on a dinner and made enuf to wire and paint the Imilding antl that will be done in the next two weeks. For a time we used it with the liar and he& cooler in it. I t has one big room that will seat about 70 and a large kitchen antl room on the side. I t is right iip town and can be seen by all the traffic thru here. h’ot only will it be an inspiration here but t o all who go by it. I t happens to he a Jlethodist chiirch. I can- *-

tell you it has been a lot of fun doing this bit of missionary work out here. \\‘e were told in college that college days were tlie happiest days of our lives. That shouldn’t be told that way, but it should be stated that during those days we should prepare for I

the happiest days, see what I mean? You can take it from a graduate of Central way back in ’29 that tlie training I received there has helped me thru many an experience out here. \\’e used to laugh at dear President Good’s expression about the “Christian college with a purpose,” hut now, we all pray i t may be kept just that way.

This is a peculiar letter-perhaps-just written to -someone back there.- Say-“Hello” to everyonefor me

and pray for our work out here. Might add we have a

DO YOU WANT AN ALUMNI DIRECTORY? A number of alumni have indicated that they would

like to have a directory telling about all the people they knew while they.\vere in college. Let tis know-ff you want one, so we can determine i f there is suffi- cient demand to justify publishing one in January, 1938. . . .

FULL ATHLETIC PROGRAM I’itli returned veterans bolstering ‘the male enroll-

ment, the Physical Education Department is looking forward to a full athletic program on an intercolle- giate basis. A11 tlie sports regularly found in the prewar program a t Central will be back and several others are to be added.

IVith basketball antl baseball having been resumed last year and football started again this fall, tlie big three are back. Cross country is being reinstated this fall and track will follow in the spring.

In addition to these major sports, plans are being made to add wrestling, tennis, and quite possibly golf. This winter the coach will pick and train a group of wrestlers, looking forward to getting into conference matches next winter.

hIr. Kenneth Sidebottom, of the hIathematics De- partment, has been drafted to coach tennis next spring. Fall activity on the courts showed a de- cided increase and interest in tennis seems to be a t a higher pitch than for some time. I t is expected that the Cardinal and Grey will have a strong crew of racket wielders to pit against the spring. opposition.

A t present intercollegiate golf is an uncertainty, but it will be included in the athletic set-up if enough persons show interest. I t is hoped that spring will find 3 squad representing Central on the fairways.
